See How Non-academic staff disrupted Mock UTME at OAU

The mock Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination was disrupted by the non-academic staff at the Obafemi Awolowo
University , Ile -Ife , on Monday.

The examination , which is organised by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board , was aimed at allowing candidates to test their skills and level of
preparedness ahead of the 2018 UTME scheduled to hold between March 9 and 17.

It was gathered that some of the
candidates had already settled down in their examination halls before the workers stormed the v
venues to send them out.

“They have sent us out . We were so scared when they came . Many of us had to rush out of the hall,” one of the candidates told our correspondent on the telephone.

Members of the striking unions said that “ such ( mock UTME) should not hold while we are on strike.”

Recently, a directive from the Joint Action Committee of the striking unions compelled the non – academic staff to intensify the ongoing strike in their various universities.
